Our new house is slowly becoming a home, it's a cross between a 1960’s Butlins holiday chalet and an Argentinean hacienda! We live in the extension to the original house which was build at the time of the Ottoman Empire. The garden is mainly paved with its own cactus garden. There are many cypress and olive trees which offer welcome shade. The bird life is incredible! When we sit out on a cool evening sipping mint tea (shay na na ) we watch kites ducking and diving, catching food for their chicks across the way. A blue humming bird hovers around the honeysuckle, and is accompanied by a green wood pecker and numerous blue jays. It is a indeed a tranquil and peaceful place, away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets of Naz. A little sanctuary, for which we are grateful. J
